In depth
Verdict
Thesis has held his form reasonably well of late and shapes as though the tep up to this trip will suit so gets a tentative TEAMtalk vote in a tricky finale. Murghob is relatively lightly raced so there may be further improvement to come but Alec Stewart's charge remains a maiden and is worth opposing while Sarena Pride was most disappointing last time and now has something to prove. Sualda has dropped down to a winning mark and has to be respected.
